A simple leather gardener's journal build. I'm not sure why I chose my least favorite leather I have in the shop.... and to post the video on my channel! This was one of those days I didn't feel up to speed but determined to push on and finish making the video. Ever have a day like that? Hope you enjoy this anyway. Thanks for watching.

haven't used a regular wallet for 15 years, I use a phone case wallet!
I’ve seen that type but never tried one. How many cards does it hold?
More practice and you can start selling. The quality is still not enough. But, good luck. Mascon Leather is the best tuber to learn. Also remember that the more you use machines to help, the less it is real handwork. You use little bit wrong ”bumb jigs”
Thanks for watching and commenting. I've watched Arte's videos many times using his jigs. Couldn't for the life of me remember what they were called! Sometimes the distractions while making a video, I tend to forget a name or some terminology. Everything is a learning process.
Good work..
Keep the first one!!!!@ i started 6 months ago . Now my wallets are gorgeous. I sew and give them away at work
Yep, always feel better when I look back at that first one! I bet your coworkers are very appreciative. Keep up the good work.
Great video and perfect results, nicely done !
Thank you for the kind words!
Really nice, I have just started in leather craft, and have made a few minimalist wallets, but as a beginner they didn't turn out the way I wanted them to, So practice practice practice.
Welcome to the leathercraft community! I found wallets a challenge to make. Maybe because of their size, any flaws really show. Everything has to be spot on so you learn quickly where you need to hone your skills. Good luck ahead and let me now how your doing. Thanks for watching my video.
Your stitching is getting better and better compared to your first wallet😊. Doing good with fast forwarding and skipping some of the tedious parts. Keep these videos coming.
Thank you for the comment. So much work goes into making a video between filming and editing. Never mind trying to make a decent product. It’s nice to hear that some progess is happening!
Love these videos ❤
Skive when leather's damp. Your camera work sucks, buddy.
What projects have you wet-formed?
Now I want to make one for my Yeti tumbler. I take it it's a friction fit, able to slide on and off when you want it to but hold onto it when you're using it? How did you figure out how tight you needed it to be around the Yeti?
Slicking the backside with Tokenole probably wasn’t the best idea. The full tumbler is quite heavy and it was sliding on me. I glued a thin piece of scrap around the inside and it doesn’t slide at all now. I use it daily and it’s been good. I have to work it with all my fingertips to slip it off.
@@brillonleather Yeah man, good idea 👍
Thats real nice work brother. Inspired me, you have
Thank you very much for saying that. I appreciate it.
That desk light is sick!
It was a gift from Matt K.. He made it on his 3D printer.
Great job 🥰
Thanks
I almost jumped out of my chair @ 7:43 (when you (and we) saw what happened. So seldom will people who make these videos, show the consequence of these things "that happen". Proud of you for showing it, and you can bet your bottom dollar that everyone will remember this (and the consequence). with each placement of the chisel. Heck, we can even FEEL your aggravation,... Thank you!!!
Thanks for that comment. I was on the fence about whether to post it. Much appreciated!
I like it. I’m gonna buy me one awesome price is right too because I ain’t worth it spit it skiving myself.
I use it more often than I thought I would. Good luck. I hope it works out well for you. Thanks for commenting!
@@brillonleather 👍🏼
Your leather may skive easier when cased, or damp...YMMV. for sure it will fold with less chance of cracking on the grain side.
Thanks for the tip John. I’m going to try that on the next belt. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Why the plastic bag? I like the BB idea. I was going to use sand. Maybe I'll get some lead bird shot. Also, I save my hand stitching for the really nice projects. Sometimes, it's just more fun to hand stitch.
Hi Dave. You have me thinking about that one. The bag really serves no purpose. I suppose I was hoping it would prevent any potential spill disasters!
Is that your homemade speaker panel hanging from the ceiling? if so, did it work well?
hmmm, no speaker panels anywhere. Probably the light fixture or the a\c duct pipe. Thank you for watching the video.
@@brillonleather Over your right shoulder, beginning @ 5:59. It looks like one of those homemade speaker panels.
Ohhh, that’s a piece of plywood that is going to have my logo on it. First thing you see as you come down the stairs. Goes with the dream of an actual legit leather shop!
Such a good idea! Loving the videos :)
Thanks Selena! #1 fan😊
What do you use to keep your materials from moving?
I’m gardening this year, after a 4 year break
That's good to hear. It's something to look forward to after the long winter! Good luck. Thanks for the comment too.
this is so handy!! i've just been ripping pages out of composition books and i can't keep track of where they go 😅
I hear you on that one! Drop me an email at randy39577@gmail.com if your intestested in buying one. i made a couple each a little different because the field books came in a pack of five. I can send you pictures. Happy gardening and thanks for the comment.
I started working in my garden in February here is zone 7b. I clean out debris from beds, and start to cut back roses. This year I have drawn lots of sketches as I am taking out many of the plants that deer and rabbits eat. Hosta, lilies, sedum. I am putting in allium, hellebores, butterfly bushes, dwarf variety, and yarrow. Dahlias also seem to work, along with salvia. So far so good, but lots of hard work digging out and digging in. Here’s hoping the investment pays off. Love the sketch book.
Started the garden last year but we fed all the near by wildlife until we fenced it. I’ll try some of those plants to lure away the hungry ones. I’m in 6b but will be starting seeds under a light soon. Happy gardening and thanks for your comment!
Oh id totally buy one of those❤ im really bad at tracking my seasons😢 you gonna sell?
I actually made a few because the notebooks came in a pack of five. Drop me an email at randy39577@gmail.com and I'll show you what I have. Thanks for the comment!
Thank you for video!
Thanks for watching!
I like the stitched one. Also, don’t sound so down on yourself. Even with the ‘happy accident’ it looks real good. 👍
Thanks for replying! I liked the stitched look too. Maybe stitched with a rivet on each corner would be cool. I went a little nuts with the rivets, lol. A good night’s sleep helps. Cleaned off the bench and ready to get at it. Just got to chill out and get back to why I enjoy this hobby!
I like that you can store one in the front too- nice design
Got to keep them handy!
Love the intro 🤣 and great idea for a keychain!
Thanks for watching!
Am I the last one to add an Airtag to my keyring?
Nice video, keep them coming :)
Thank you very much. I appreciate that comment. Thanks for the support!
Very nice indeed! I link the darker color snap button style. Good that you have options.
Thank you very much for replying!
Honestly, i started with this 6 mo ago, and then bought the one similar to it with a handle. Now, im spending 1500 on the hand crank!! its much easier and quick. It doesnt wrinkle the leather and u dont have to fight to pull it through. 😊
I know what you mean about the wrinkling. That sounds like a nice piece of equipment you have!
Getting spring fever?
These are sick! I personally like the veg tan and harness leather and the snap closures. But all the designs look awesome. Nice work
Thank you. Glad you like them!
Let me know please which one you prefer. Which closure and leather. Thanks!
I’d have to stick a label on the top to show which way to turn the screws to enlarge/ reduce the cut. I’d be bound to forget!
That's a good idea! I almost want to get a second one so I can leave one set up for belts. When I change it I need to run some scrap to find my spot again.
Hi Randy, happy you are going to have more time for your leather craft 😊love the pocketbook and belt ❤you made!!
I hope so too!
What's your favorite style guitar strap?
You know those Amazon packages have a pull tab to easily open those bags right?! No need to use scissors or a knife to open them.
Looks like a nice basic sturdy low tech device. I’ve been thinking about getting one like this and although your demonstration is great I think I’ve now landed on not getting one. First of all my hand skiving technique has improved a good deal from struggling with it for a while and I would love to develop it further. Secondly I don’t have a workshop and my life would come to a swift and painful end if I were to screw this into the teakwood dining room table. 😂
Haha, definitely don't mar that teakwood table. That's awesome your improving with your hand skiving. I find it one of my toughest challenges. Practice makes perfect, right? Thanks for watching the video and best of luck with your leathercraft.
Hello, does this tool grind well tanned leather straps for belts?
It actually splits the leather will a blade rather than grinding. I've only used it to skive my belts at the folded area rather than skiving by hand. it's worked well on my bridle like in the video. I haven't used it for anything else.
Great video and advice. I am just starting Leathercraft and my projects have been disastrous. It is nice to see someone else's struggles when they are getting started. Thank you.
I'm sure everyone that has attempted leathercraft has gone through the the beginner perils. I wanted to make a video as the beginner because most videos show impeccable work and skill. It's tough for the beginner to compare their own work to. Looking back at over a year of practice I can see and feel the improvement I am having and hope that continues. It's a rewarding skill and hopefully you will continue and see your progress over time. It's a marathon, not a sprint, as they say. Thanks for watching and good luck.
Great video I am also new to the hobby, Learning as I go. Keep it up!! By the way, I ended up buying that same machine after this video. lol
Glad to hear it. We never stop learning. Good luck in your new hobby. I use this little splitter often and it's holding up well!
Nice, gotta check if any EU amazons sell those. Thanks!
It's quite handy.
Definitely got to have me one those too
I have a couple on the bench I'm working on. I'll let you know when I finish them!
Interesting excellent job
Thank you very much!
Excellent technique great job
Thanks!
Hard work pays off!!! ❤️Absolutely amazing I want one too 👌
Thanks for watching!
I support any small-time CZcamsr are you doing great I love you video
Thank you very much. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and send me a comment.
We all have our problems learning.I learned in the 70s from my uncle but I was busy working and now I'm 70 yrs old relearning ....it's like starting from fresh.I enjoy the videos
Hi Jim, nice to meet you. I wish I stumbled upon this hobby years ago but I'm happy to start now. It doesn't matter the age, right? As long as you like what your doing. I feel I've progressed in my first year and am nearing retirement soon and look forward to having much more time to put in to it. Thanks for watching my video and commenting!
